Disappointing experience from Belgium Branch
After a previously positive experience with TUI in the UK to Mexico, I found a flight with TUIFly Belgium to Mexico and booked. It was affordable, especially since I was booking just one-way they don’t penalise for a non-return booking. Aside from the price — the service lacked thereafter. Unlike with my UK flight I had to call customer service to request a vegan meal for my flight, it took almost 90 minutes of my time and actually cost me €21 in caller fees! I then discovered there was no vegan meal waiting for me on the flight which was very frustrating! I had to pay for snacks and a meal on their menu instead. The other challenge I had with this flight was I paid €40 to choose my seat as I didn’t want a middle one which was assigned… but after the first hour people who clearly had not paid to sit in the seats next to me decided to move… which meant my lovely 3-row isle which was a surprise became sitting next to two drunk passengers who opted to move from the back to the front. I wouldn’t book again with TUI in Belgium because of these issues — but I would try the UK branch again as that was more of a 4/5 experience.
